The question was brought up at
the Wednesday meeting by Robt.
McLean when he made a motion,
seconded by A. McKee, that ‘the sec-
retary be instructed % write to the
City of Calgary protesting against
their sewage dumping policy. A. T.
Connolly, R. A, Travis, H. O. Bredin,
H. G. Angell, Wm. McLaws, and
othera spoke on the subject.
Bredin said that at previous times
the town council had endeavored to
have thig trouble remedied. They
had taken tip the matter with “the
provincial health department. with
the object of compelling Calgary _ to
build a sewage disposal plant, but
nothing had come of it.. Samples
of water were taken at various times
and sent to Edmonton for analysis,
Testa showed the water to be free
from disease germs,

Mr. McLaws said i was not a
question of whether the testa showed
disease germs to be present or not.
It was a question of Calgary dump-
ing raw sewage into the river when
they had no right to do so, according
to the provincial health Jaws,

Mr. Bredin said the council was
now making further efforts in this
matier with the health department
at Edmonton. The motion passed.

A motion was put by Geo. Travis

was instructed to write the town
overseer requesting that he devise

nuisance,

The question of holding a school
fair in Bassano wag brought up for
discussion. It was decided to appoint
a committee to look into this matter.

Twenty memberg attended the
meeting, and they enjoyed the ex-

HERYFORD - BROS, HANDLE
BIG OROP EXPEDITIOUSLY

eee, .

The two Heryford Bros. who farm
about thirteen miles north-west of
Bassano, in the Makepeace district,
have almost finished threshing their
wheat. Using a combine, they had
cut and threshed 550 acres by Tues-
day of this week, and were then
working on their remaining 250 acres
which they were handling by the
straight combine method. About 240
acres of their crop was cut with a
swather. q

A large acreage of the Heryford
Bros. crop was sown on ground that

stand of grain was not extra heavy,

els to the acre. Their wheat graded

During the past summer I motored

some.2800 miles I met about half a
dozen horse drawn vehicles and
thousands upon thousands of cars.

What impressed me most on my

on the route. Yes, and the kindly
hospitality of the people. Those
states are really foreign country to
‘Canadians, but the folks living there

white men had ever taken across the

and Clarkston I followed the path
along the Snake river taken by those
intrepid explorers and frontiersmen
over one hundred years ago. The
route is marked by appropriate sign
boards. Here Lewis and Olark par-
leyed with Indians; a little farther

on they spent the winter, and‘so on.

I was quite interested in the bank-
ing syetem of the United States. We
Canadians know our banking system
pretty well. We have the “chain
bank” system with the “seats of the
mighty” in the money centres, of
Montreal or Toronto. The local
banking system is the style in the
States, augmented by the Federal
Reserve banks.

. . s

Their banking ‘system has the
weakness that the prosperity of the
bank depends entirely upon the pros-
perity of the immediate district,
while in Canada calamitous con-
ditions in one district hardly affects
a bank, because the strength of more
prosperous portions of the country
bears it up. (For instance, several
poor crop years in the Bassano dist-
rict would probably result in the
banks closing if the ‘local system
Was in operation.

*. * *&

On the other hand when a local
bank fails in the United States its
loans are usually in the immediate
district and the money has not been
drained to far away points. When
the home Bank failed in Canada at
«he branch in Fernie there was over
$500,000 on deposit and loans totalled
about $60,000. The balance was in-
vested in wild-cat enterprises in
Memphis, Tennessess, in timber lim-
its in British Columbia, and possibly
in musk melon hemos’ in Tanganytke,

Local banks take a greater in-
terest and ‘give stronger assistance
in local enterprise. Our system of
banke fail in heaps Feopeot,

My own ‘iedussdacey as to the com-
parative systems are rather vague.
While I like the solidarity of the
Canadian banking system, still the

‘Threshing is progressing raplaly,

The use of trucks for hauling
wheat to. the elevators has greatly
speeded up delivery, and contributed
tothe filling up of the country grain
houses so rapidly. The same story
of plugged elevators comes from ‘all
points in the neighborhood of Bas-
sano. Some farmers from distant
points have intimated their tntention
of building granaries in town to
store theif wheat until they can get
cars to ship it out.

‘Crops at Bassano are yielding
heavily. Many fields are threshing
40 and 45 bushels to the acre, and
some will run over 60 bushels. It
ig estimated that for the district the
tverage will be more than 40 bushels
but this figure is declared by some
to be too high.

Frost caused some damage to the
wheat, and the grade has been low-
ired on this account. Most of the
grain so far delivered has graded
No. 2 and 3, with some 4, and a
little No. 1,

He expressed the opinion that the

Plot To Kill Trotzky

| Several Attempts Are Made To
Assassinate Exile In Siberia

London, Eng.—The London Daily
Mail says that despatches received in
London revealed several attempts to
assassinate Leon Trotzky, since his
exile to Siberia by the Soviet govern-
ment.,

According to the reports, Trotzky
had written letters to Christian Rak-
ovsky, former Soviet envoy to Great
Britain, describing how his cottage

\

was besieged and how sharpshooters
attacked him from trees. *
Trotzky said he and his son de-

saying, ‘Come over and help ns,’ and fended their house with two sporting

guns and told how the attack was

to the Trotzky family, the latter were
purported to have said. Only the
kindness of friends saved them from
starving.

LOWER RATES ON
ELECTRIC CURRENT -

People of Bassano will welcome the |
reduction in the rates on electric cur-|
tent. Commencing October Ist, con-
yumers will be charged on the new
‘ate basis, and the reduction will de
~onsiderable for those who have been
paying more than the minimum
wmount each month.

The Calgary Power took over the
ocal light system <ome time ago, and
the new owners have expanded the
system until it now includes Standard
Rockyford, Strathmore, Gleichen,
and Arrowwood.

The company has thus greatly in-
creased the consumption of current
in their system, ani with greater!
consumption the cos: per kilowat of
production is lessened. thus enabling
the company to reduce the rate
charged.

Bassano has for years been paying
a high rate for electric current. In
the old days of the local steam plant
the high rate Was necessary because
of the heavy operating cost, but since
the installation of the hydro the pro-|
duction cost hag been greatly lessen-

BIG CROP ?

As threShing of Aiberta’s bumper)
1928 crop continues, farmers in all) $
parts of southern Alberta are faced
with a new difficulty—that of shipp-|
ing their grain. i

Elevators at many points are now
filled up, and cannot take any more
wheat until they get the cars to ship
it out to the termimal elevciors at
Vancouver and the head of the Great
Lakes. i

Ideal threshing weather has pre-
vailed since the beginning of the
harvest season, and there has been
practically no interuption from the
work of threshing the wheat. Faiw-;
ers everywhere have been pushirg
the work at top speed, and a steady
stream of golden grain has been flow-
ing from the wheat fields to the
country elevators. *

The wheat bas been Coming in fas-
ter than the elevators can procure
cars to ship it out, amd the result is
full grain houses and dissacisiied
farmers who are anxious to ship their
grain but cannot do so.

Many farmers have motorized their
grain hauling equipment, and now
the wheat moves from the grain
field to the elevator at five or six
imes the speed of former years.

Railway men claim they are delir-
ering the grain to the terminals as
fast as the terminals cam handle it.
They say the troubl, is lack of capac-
ity in the handling equipment at the
terminals. The terminals can only
take care of a certain mumber of cars
of grain each day, and the railways
claim they are delivering a capacity
number of cars to thé terminals. This
“auses a blockade back along the line
co the country elevators.

At any rate, the trouble is becom-
ing acute, and relief of some sort
would be hailed with joy by the

that even part of it was forced from

In the same period over ten thou-

were stalled on the tracks, and others
were demolished by flying trains
which were not derailed.

Each year thousands of persons are
killed and injured at railroad cross-

could well be labeled “suicide,” for
we recklessly persist in taking the
American’s gambling chance.

The only ways in which one may
commit suicide at a crossing are by
trying to beat the train, or paying no
attention to what is coming along the
track. The driver who obeys bells,

proaches a crossing with both eyes

Eckhart guaranteed that the signa-
ture of Mr, Stark as it came over
the wire was genuine, and Vice-Prest-
dent John Washburn, of the Con-
tinental National Bank, approved the
“photogram” of the original cheque
so that it could be cashed.

Although Mr, Eckhart believes that
changes will have to be made in the
laws regarding negotiable instru-
ments fore such transmission of
cheques will come into common use,
he sees a great future for the sending
of documents and autographs by the
tele-phonegraphic process.

“Of course, the signature is not
the original one,” Mr. Washburn said,
“but I believe a system will be work-
ed out to make this method practica-
ble, and when whoever receivés ne-
gotiable paper guarantees the signa-
ture as genuine there should be no
trouble.”

Mr. Eckhart received the cheque
eleven minutes after a telegram from
Mr. Stark was delivered to him tell-
ing him that the cheque was on the
way.

Toad Takes Up Battle At Night
When Birds Sleep

Scientists at the’ Department of
Agriculture, W: , report that
the common “hop” toad, familiar to
all country children, takes the night
shift with birds in their constant war
on insects. When the birds cease their
daylight activtities the battle is tak-
en up by their important ally.

Urging farmers and others to pro-
tect the toad and save him for the
good he can and will do, the Biolo-
gical Survey says:

“An active interest in the conser-
vation of toads must be taken if
these useful animals are to escape
extermination by the draining of
their breeding places, by the burning

of fields and wobds, and by other per- |.

ils of their present-day environment.”

The automobile and the city sys-
tem take large tolls of toads, the de-
partment points out.

NO MEDICINE LIKE
BABY’S OWN TABLETS

For Either the Newborn Babe Or
the Growing Child

There is no other medicine to equal |

Baby’s Own Tablets for little ones—
whether it be for the newborn babe
or the growing child the Tablets
always do good. They are absolutely
free from opiates or other harmful
drugs and the mother can always feel
safe in using them.

Concerning the Tablets, Mrs. John
Armour, R.R. 1, South Monaghan,
Ont., says:—‘‘We have three fine,
healthy children, to whom, when a
medicine is needed, we have given
only Baby's Own Tablets. The Tab-
lets are the best medicine you can
keep in any home where there are
young children.”

Baby's Own Tablets are a mild but
thorough laxative which regulate the
stomach and bowels; banish constipa-
tion and indigestion; break up colds
and simple fever and make teething
easy. They are sold by medicine
dealers or direct by mail at 25 cents
a box from The Dr. Williams’ Medi-
cine Co,, Brockville, Ont.

Days passed, and as late winter
merged into spring there was a stir
throughout the city. Men who had
spent the winter in idleness were
“going out” again. Loggers in their
characteristic blanket shirts hanging
loose outside their trousers, could be
seen on all sides saying gnod- bye to
their friends.

One morning Donald counted. his
rapidly dwindling cash and found

that he would have barely enough to|_

tide him over the -week-end.

of ornamentation of the tooth body.

In the tooth, this body which con-
stitutes the main bulk of the tooth,
is known as the dentine,

Then is this all? No, for as in the!
tree we have a pith or core, so in the)
tooth we find a central chamber)
known in the crown of the tooth, as
the pulp chamber, and in the root, an}

the root canal.

~ But you have observed, too, hat |
the enamel coverg only the exposeu
portion of the tooth, or crown,

root, then, is protected by a covering
known as cementum, which attached |
the myriads of fibre or ‘threads,’
that hold the tooth firmly in place
in its socket.

Nature, ever wise, has constituted
the enamel the hardest substance in
the human body, to better withstand
the stress to which it is subjected.
Also, enamel does not undergo the
physiologic changes of dissolution |
ond repair to the extent of any oth-
er body tissues, hence the need of
hardness as an effective barrier to
injury and disease.

In the dentine are minute tubules,
or canals, containing soft tissue fila-
ments through which communication
is established from the outside of the

tooth to the nerve tissue of the pulp; |

and because of this honeycombed
structure and, too, owing to dentine
}being softer than enamel, it is less
resistant to disease than is the lat-
ter.

So you can see hew important it is
to keep intact the enamel which con-
stitutes the outer defences of the
tooth since disease processes, once
penetrating the enamel barrier, can
